@Groovee I’m so sorry to hear. 💐

Groovee so sorry, fingers crossed for the days ahead.

Rookie I definitely think people are tried of it.
Rightly or wrongly I met a friend in the park yesterday. We never met the whole of last year, work, shifts, holidays, lockdown. I'm not really prepared to go another 6 mths without meeting.

Oh my goodness I'm so sorry Groovee . I hope he gets treatment quickly.

IncludeWomenInTheSequel · 16/01/2021 19:08

Oh @Groovee what an awful worry. Great that he's in the hands of the right people.

Outsidemum1 · 16/01/2021 19:11

Thinking of you Groovee. He's on good hands and they'll be taking good care of him I'm sure

Outsidemum1 · 16/01/2021 19:12

Sorry meant to type in good hands.

Rae36 · 16/01/2021 19:15

@groovee your family really has had a run of bad luck. I'm sorry

titsbumfannythelot · 16/01/2021 19:23

Thanks for you @Groovee and sending best wishes for mr g. I understand that work will be a distraction but hope you can discuss with someone in case you need some time for yourself

anon444877 · 16/01/2021 19:23

I'm so sorry to hear that grovee

Sturmundcalm · 16/01/2021 19:34

@Groovee - so sorry to hear that.

good they've got a plan, and also good to keep yourself busy. hope your DH is coping with being so isolated at a time like this Flowers

Coquohvan · 16/01/2021 19:39

@Groovee wish you all the best. 🙏🏼

user1487194234 · 16/01/2021 19:41

@Groovee thoughts and prayers with you and your DH

WaxOnFeckOff · 16/01/2021 19:53

Really sorry to hear your news @groovee. The important thing here is that your DH is not your Dad. There is no reason that the outcome will be the same. You need to keep your thinking head on and make sure that you listen well to all conversations, that can ne hard. there is nothing wrong with asking if you/your DH can record any conversations with the consultants so you can listen carefully to them later. You want to feel as in control of the diagnostic/treatment "process" as you can.

You don't need to come back and share anything if you don't want to but we are all here with you as best we can regardless. We might not ask how things are everyday, but guaranteed we will be thinking about you everyday.

Thinking of you @Groovee x

Sweetpotatoaddict · 16/01/2021 19:55

@Groovee that is tough. Fingers crossed for very quick treatment plan. I would have a low threshold for stopping working if you need to. Other things to consider is if you have critical illness cover.
Thinking of you, the covid restrictions make things so much more difficult Flowers

Invisimamma · 16/01/2021 20:00

I'm sorry groovee, I hope you're doing okay and have some rl support too.

Take care of yourself too.

NotAnActualSheep · 16/01/2021 20:07

Shite. I'm so sorry to hear that groovee. What an absolute nightmare. Flowers And yes, what others have said about taking care of yourself.

dancemom · 16/01/2021 20:26

Thinking of you @Groovee

Gibbonsgibbonsgibbons · 16/01/2021 20:29

I’m so sorry to read that groovee FlowersFlowersFlowers

You’re probably running on adrenaline but it’s exhausting so please try to slow down enough to take care of yourself

littlbrowndog · 16/01/2021 20:39

Grovee much love sent to you

Groovee · 16/01/2021 20:43

Thanks everyone. I have some amazing real life support. Work have been amazing too. I don't normally have one thing after the other like this.

I'm shocked about dh as he's very rarely ill. The gp said the other day, the last time you were here was 2015 (virus) 2008 (vasectomy) 1998 (electrocuted himself). He's had his moment but said he was pleased to see me. Just a waiting game.

C0NNIE · 16/01/2021 21:29

Delurking to say sorry to hear your news @Groovee 💐

WouldBeGood · 16/01/2021 21:54

@Groovee gosh, what a shock. Have a virtual hug
